Figs and pizza!

I didn’t get a chance to post some simple and tasty things I had on Sunday that were inspired by fellow vegan bloggers, so here they are. Breakfast, ripe black figs dropped in a bowl of vanilla soygurt, was inspired by this (the soygurt) and this (the figs). So simple, yet so beautiful and yummy!

That’s right, a vegan pizza! We topped it with fresh spinach and basil leaves, sliced tomatoes and baby portabella mushrooms, tempeh bacon crumbles, kalamata olives and tofu ricotta (a pound of firm tofu mashed with lemon juice, nutritional yeast, minced garlic and basil, salt and pepper). Hsauce made the pizza sauce, a mixture of canned diced tomatoes, tomato paste and barbecue sauce (sounds strange, but the bbq sauce gave it a zing!). The whole wheat dough was pre-made from the farmer’s market. It was good. Really good! Lately, I find that my best meals are ones that require the littlest amount of effort.
